AN EVENING WITH WINSOME SEARS
We are so excited about our upcoming event and hope you can join us! On Saturday, July 9th join us for "An Evening With Winsome Sears".
Winsome Earle Sears came to this country from Jamaica as a young girl in 1963. Her father had $1.50 in his pocket. When Winsome asked him why he came to the United States, he answered that America has unlimited opportunity for everyone.
Lt Governor Sears joined the United States Marines and was trained as an electrician and a diesel mechanic. After finishing her tour with the Marines, she started a business with her husband that still services appliance maintenance contracts.
Winsome was elected to the Virginia State School Board in 2003. She served as Vice-Chair of the Virginia State School Board. She did not run for re-election when one of her daughters became ill and eventually passed away.
She was recruited to chair a SuperPAC, Black Americans to Re-elect the (Republican) President. Under her leadership $6 million was raised. This PAC is the most successful black run PAC in history.
Winsome Sears was the conservative anchor of the GOP ticket in Virginia in 2021. She helped swing the state 10 points to elect the GOP statewide slate and a majority in the Virginia House of Delegates.
With Biden’s approval rating lower than any Democrat this century and 27% of black voters intending to vote GOP in the midterms, now is the time to highlight black GOP elected officials.
Winsome Sears is THE hot political ticket in 2022. And this is an event you DON'T WANT TO MISS!
